Edmund, a king's son in disguise, and Elspeth, a sea captain's tomboy daughter, are the only two survivors of a terrible shipwreck. They just want to go home, but fate has other plans as they are... This description may be from another edition of this product.
...that's what we're all look for, right? Pros: Nice "gifts" for Edmund and Elspeth. If you are into the Eragon series, Edmund's gift (although not nearly as powerful as a dragon rider) is similar in that he can sense things and see what others are seeing. Interesting characters...still waiting to find out more about Clurian. Cons: imagery is fair to good. I had trouble "seeing" the landscape at times or the people in it. Edmund and Elspeth ALWAYS choose the "wrongly". Heros (and heroines) are supposed to get into tight spots--I get it--but not always because they make sophomoric choices. Overall a good read. Ordered 2nd and 3rd if that tells you anything.

For the fans of fiction: a must read! Fast-paced and accurate, I never put the book down once. The plot is well-planned and detailed, as well as exiting and interesting. Curiosity to find out what happens next in this book is absolutely over-whelming! The beginning, when I started, was not the greatest of beginnings (I have to say) but after you get to know the situation and the characters, I sort of grew to love them. THe unexpected lurks in every sentence in this book! I repeat: For anyone who considers themselves a reader, they HAVE to read THE COMING OF DRAGONS. It's not a book that pops up everyday!
